Memory usage Configuration.exe (1 Viewer)

Mmm, don't know where to post this so..ill try here..

Why the fuck is Configuration.exe using almost 40 MB of ram???

first of all... it's F@CK.... and your config is only open for like 2 minutes at a time.... does it really matter?

Oooh I see, you're from the USA...if you show a nipple on tv there everybody is going crazy!!!! w000t!!! ooh nooo..a nipple!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine takes 39 MB, but for me it's not really a big deal. I really don't have an answer to why it needs so much ram.

And BTW.... I LOVE NIPPLES!!!!!

I think that is related to the .NET Framework. I made a very small tool to send one simple sql query to a database every x minutes. This tool uses 19 MB RAM.

But like ASiDiE already said the RAM usage of configuration.exe should not be that important, because you just use it for a short time.

Mmm, i think thats it, cause i've also developped in .net framework once...and it was just a stupid small executable but it also used aroun 15 megabytes...

thnx

The Configuration.exe file is currently tied very closely with the MediaPortal.exe. They share many libraries and so when starting Configuration.exe there is some level of overhead with code used in the main application.

Also, .NET loves to allocate memory

MP Itself takes between 90 - 140 MB on my machine.
But using it on a dedicated machine with 1GB of RAM, i don't care at all.
It could use 300MB if it likes. :lol:

Maybe you have just to create a minimalistic skin that contains only really small black and while textures

Also remember that .NET framework uses garbage collection and it won't release all unused memory right away if there is free memory available in the system (this is done for performance reasons).
